Check out this recently un-earthed, extremely vintage video of a then-13-year-old Shakira performing Magia, a track from the album of the same name that she recorded in 1990 but never officially released (above)!

Incredible!

You can tell that even then, she really had a spark that made her something special!

my father was actually the first person that ever played her musin on the radio ( nojoke)
my dad always tells me about how her dad had to take the bus just to get to the radio station to drop off her recorded singles

I see this kind of video and remember my times when I was just a child and used to see her at local tv. Nowday when she comes to her homecity (Barranquilla) she goes around as a regular person. She's the biggest talent from Colombia!

For english speakers at beggining of the video she says:
"What's up pals?!, I am Shakira, and I invite you to adquire my recent tune named Magia (Magic) at the Global Record Market or Discos La Rumbita (These where two old record shops back in time in Barranquilla)"

And this is what she would still look like if she didn't have the money to afford the hair stylists and makeup artists that she does. Just like JLO and Britney and many others in the business, people wouldn't even look twice at them if they were walking down the streets.

A poorly researched article as usual from this blogger. The album was officially released indeed through Sony, but didn't do very well. There are hundreds of clips like this, available on every major Shakira forum.

*yawn* this hardly news - she had a HUUUGEE career in Colombia before making it in English and has been performing since very young. Ask any early 30something or late 20something Colombian and they'll tell you. Her first big album (actually a 3rd album), is called "Pies Descalzos" is from the **mid 90s** and what she named her foundation after.

While it is hardly as old, my fave of her pre-english songs is Ojos Asi.

A new Bill Cosby accuser's story of how he allegedly sexually assaulted her after drugging her drink is horrifying.

According to Patricia, -- who decided to keep her last name anonymous -- Bill invited her to a dinner party in 1978 after they met at a conference... a dinner party that ended up just being the two of them:
